Before fleeing famine, marry a playboy!

Chapter 2 Where to Go in the Future?

The maid Xiaosui'er came in with a tray carrying a small bowl. Li Yuening was sorting out her thoughts. Her chaotic thoughts limited her mental strength, which made Li Yuening, who was living in the end times, very uneasy.

"Madam, the porridge is ready, please have some." There were still traces of smoke on the little maid's face.

"Where is the maid from the kitchen? Why are you doing it alone?"

"My lady, it's okay. I know how to do all these. I've tried them and they're not mushy." I can't tell my lady that all the servants have run away in the past half month, and my lady has just recovered and can't get sick again.

Li Yuening did not ask more questions. No matter how many more questions she asked, she did not have the energy to care. She just pretended to be stupid and scooped the porridge into her mouth. Well, it was not mushy. There was a hard core in the rice, so it was not cooked. Fortunately, she had suffered all kinds of hardships in the apocalypse. If it were her original body with that thin throat, she would not be able to swallow it.

The maid Xiaosui'er was stunned. When did her wife become so rude? But she soon realized that her wife had not eaten for several days and was very hungry. She was like this when she had no food to eat before. Thinking of this, Xiaosui'er started to cry again. They would soon have no food to eat.

Li Yuening swallowed the last grain of rice in her mouth before asking, "What's wrong?" Why does this little girl cry at every turn? Don't call Xiaosui'er a crybaby.

Xiao Sui'er burped and snorted, "It's okay, my lady, are you full?"

hiccup~

Xiaosui'er quickly covered her mouth.

When Li Yuening handed over the bowl, she gently pressed the Juque point on Xiaosui'er's abdomen, and Xiaosui'er's hiccups stopped. Li Yuening turned her shoulders, feeling sticky all over, "Boil some hot water, I want to take a bath."

Xiao Sui'er said worriedly, "My lady, you are still hot, you can't take a bath and catch a cold again."

"It's okay, I'm fine now. I've been lying in bed for so many days and I want to take a bath to relax. Go quickly." Afraid that the little maid would continue to talk, Li Yuening hurriedly sent her out. She was most afraid of people talking too much and tiring others out by agreeing to something.

Li Yuening got up from the bed and walked around the room. Li Kuida really loved the child. He looked at the simple things in the small room, but they were all valuable. The carved huanghuali wooden bed, I was not mistaken, and the screen was Su embroidery, right? It was double-sided, one side had a blue phoenix spreading its wings, the other side had a fish playing in a lotus pond, and the frame was made of red sandalwood.

Oh, it was embroidered by the original owner himself!

My original body was a reader, but now that I was weak, I could only embroider and read books to pass the time. There were medical books, agricultural books, engineering books, and even water conservancy books. Was I going to take the imperial examination?

Don’t little girls love to read picture books?

Yes, if the original body liked reading picture books, he wouldn't have been deceived so badly by Xie Zhan.

Wandering in front of the golden nanmu dressing table, Li Yuening was stunned. The beauty in the bronze mirror was wearing a mourning headband, with no makeup on her face, almond eyes with waves under her slender eyebrows, and a straight and beautiful nose.

Li Yuening poked her cheek with her fingers, her lips slightly pouted, looking adorable and silly. But when she glanced at the white headband on her forehead, she realized something was wrong and put on a lost and sad look, with her dark brows slightly furrowed and her almond eyes filled with tears, looking very pitiful.

Oh my god, Daiyu is really Yu!

Xie Zhan really doesn't know what's good for him!

Now, the escort agency has been disbanded, and only she and this little maid are left. What should she do in the future?

Li Yuening knew that although she had supernatural powers, she was still not sure how to handle them in this ancient era where there were many hidden talents. In the imperial era, capable people either had to rely on powerful people or have the support of aristocratic families. Otherwise, they would be guilty of possessing a treasure and would be the target of everyone's attacks. She did not want to be a target.

Another point is that the original body is already 15 years old. In Dajin, if a girl is over 15 and not married, she will be matched by the official, which means she will be assigned to someone who has no partner. At that time, she will have no choice but to marry someone ugly. It seems that the Xie family will have to go through this.

According to the original body's memory, Xie Lin and his original wife had two sons. The eldest son Xie An had two sons and one daughter, and he had a son and a daughter with Xie's first wife Feng.

The eldest grandson Xie Zhan is already 18 years old. He studied under a teacher at Gusu Academy and has the honor of being a scholar. He is also handsome and is the son-in-law that every family is vying to marry. However, he has never married because he is engaged. He and his younger sister Xie Rongrong are brothers from the same mother.

The second son, Xie Shi, was born to a concubine. At the age of 17, he was a well-known playboy in Jinling City. At a young age, he was a frequent visitor to red-light districts and had no education. Xie An had given up on this illegitimate son and focused on training Xie Zhan.

Xie Lin's second son was born with difficulty and his reaction was a little slow, but fortunately it did not delay his marriage and having children. He and his second wife, Mrs. Lu, had three sons: 17-year-old Xie Fan, 16-year-old Xie Hang, and 15-year-old Xie Yi.

Because of the special nature of the men in the second wife, they have all depended on the first wife for these years. As there was no proper mother-in-law, Feng became the mistress of the Xie family. Xie Lin and Xie An were away from home all year round because of their business, so Feng gradually marginalized Xie Lin and Xie An and became the biggest master.

Li Yuening was soaking in the bathtub while thinking: This branch of the Xie family is really going to decline. Except for Xie Zhan, no one else has made any progress. But she really despises Xie Zhan. Why not pick the tallest one among the short ones? She can't just wait for the assignment. It's too passive.

Li Yuening clenched her fists, but it was still too weak. She took out one-third of the potion from the space, gritted her teeth and drank another half, then put her whole body and head into the warm water. Five minutes later, bubbles appeared on the water surface, like boiling water. Li Yuening stood up, shook her long hair, put her hands on the edge of the bathtub and exerted force, the bathtub fell apart, and water flooded the floor.

Xiao Sui'er, who heard the noise, ran in and saw Li Yuening standing naked in the ruins. She hurriedly tore off clothes from the screen and put them on her, "Madam, what happened? Why is the bathtub cracked? Are you hurt?" The concerned expression did not seem fake.

Li Yuening held down Xiao Sui'er's hands, "It's okay. I fell asleep while taking a bath. I dreamed that my father taught me a set of boxing techniques. I was the one who cracked the tub."

Regardless of the shocked little maidservant who stood there, she wiped the water stains on her body and put on her clothes. She was different from her original master. The little maidservant needed to follow her rhythm. She would protect her safety, otherwise she could only find a good place for her and go their separate ways.

After giving Xiao Sui'er enough time to think, Li Yuening finally spoke: "Are you done? Come over here and braid my hair for me."

Xiaosui'er felt that his wife had changed. She used to be so weak that she couldn't even walk up the steps to Xiaohan Temple to burn incense. Now she has become much more indifferent. What's the matter with her brute force? Alas, it was because the master passed away in a hurry, forcing his wife to put away her weakness and use indifference to fight the pain in her heart. Woo, his wife is so pitiful.

Li Yuening carefully observed Xiao Sui'er's expression and saw that she only felt distress and pity, but she didn't need pity.

She wrung her hair dry. The sun outside was already setting. This was the only bad thing about ancient times. Hair was waist-length and difficult to take care of. And the clothes were layered. According to Li Yuening, they were not windproof at all in winter. There was no point in making them flow freely.

"Xiao Sui'er, take me to my father's study." What kind of dart did Li Kuida catch? Life or death?

Li Yuening was skeptical about this matter. Li Kuida said that he would retire after taking this escort mission, which meant that the reward for this escort mission was generous and that the items being transported were valuable.

Was the dart hijacked by bandits or someone who knew the inside story and killed someone, or did the person who entrusted the dart kill to silence him?

Only by finding the information of the person who entrusted the escort can further verification be carried out.

If you borrow someone else's body, you should do something about it.
